Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy for ectopic Cushing’s syndrome caused by metastatic neuroendocrine neoplasms

open access: yesEndocrine Oncology
Background: Metastatic gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEPNEN) can cause ectopic Cushing’s syndrome (ECS). ECS is highly morbid and medical therapy is complex and can be ineffective.

Theranostics in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms: From Molecular Imaging to Personalized Radionuclide Therapy

open access: yesRadiation
Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNENs) are a heterogeneous group of tumors characterized by variable biological behavior and frequent overexpression of somatostatin receptors, making them ideal candidates for theranostic approaches.

Cutaneous Neuroendocrine Metastases of Visceral Origin Responsive to Surgical Resection and Targeted Radionuclide Therapy

open access: yesCase Reports in Dermatological Medicine
Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) encompass a diverse range of biologically and behaviorally distinct epithelial malignancies that derive from neuroendocrine cells. These neoplasms are able to secrete a variety of bioactive amines or peptide hormones.

Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy of neuroendocrine tumours

open access: yes, 2016
In the past decades, the number of neuroendocrine tumours that are detected is increasing. A relative new and promising therapy for patients with metastasised or inoperable disease is peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT). This therapy involves an

Tolerability and outcomes of neuroendocrine tumors treated with PRRT and SBRT

open access: yesEndocrine Oncology
There is interest in optimizing peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) for the management of metastatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN). The addition of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) may provide synergistic benefits by targeting ...
